We have a big trip planned for the 1st week of July so I am a little concerned about the rear E3. Got to looking at it real close and it is scalloped on the sides. UMMM...what caused that? This is a rear tire and I run 40 PSI in the tire and check it regularly. I ride 2 up about 1/2 time and still check the pressure regularly. As you can see I do not ride the twisties much cause there just not that many roads here that have twisties...Mostly straight road with slight curves compared to the smokies. I got 13700 miles on it so far...still got about 4-5/32 tread depth but it is kinda noisy when you get it off center. I am well pleased with the performance of this tire and feel I have got my money's worth, although i could probably get another 3-5000 miles out of it...why take the chance. You know what they say if you are thinking about changing a tire...you should go ahead and do it...if you are going on a road trip. See attachments for photos...43 and 44 is the same tire looking at different directions...the other one is side view you can see the slight raising at the tread grooves. I am gonna change it just in to be safe for the trip, since we do not know how far we will go and really have not decided how long we will be gone. The wife and I are off from work for 3 weeks and we plan to ride till we get tired then turn around and head back home. The rear wheel is at the closest dealer swapping the tire now. Just wondering...What caused this??? What do you think?
